Head of Russia's internal republic of Chechnya Ramzan Kadyrov is ready to protect the rights of the Russian-speaking people in Crimea that sees disturbances over the change in authorities.

"Ukraine and Russia are fraternal peoples. I have many Ukrainian friends, and like them all and regret what has recently been happening there The majority of people living today in Crimea are Russians, Cossacks. We are always with them and if necessary are ready to come to the rescue. We will stand up for Russians, Cossacks and Chechens no matter where they live," Kadyrov told journalists on Wednesday.

Chechens are "a part of multiethnic and multi-religious Russia" and live "in friendship with all peoples," he said.

"We are called upon to protect our peoples. If necessary, we are ready to go, to be observers. If necessary, we are ready to be peacekeepers and soldiers and protect the people," Kadyrov said.

>>>Heck, the Soviets STARTED the war when they agreed with Hitler to carve up Poland.

To be honest Poland was in game too, teaming with Germans to carve Czechs earlier.

Bull....The Nazis already took over Czechoslovakia, when Poland retook Cieszyn which was stolen back Czechs in 1920, while Poland was busy defending the West from the Bolsheviks.

The Nazis didn’t care, they knew they’d get it soon anyway. But Poland did not “Team” with the Germans on it.

The Chechen says;

"We are called upon to protect our peoples. If necessary, we are ready to go, to be observers. If necessary, we are ready to be peacekeepers and soldiers and protect the people,"

Protect "our" peoples...? From what?

Other than noise from Western Ukraine to make Ukrainian language the official language, what credible threat has been made by Western Ukrainians?

And if Muslim, wouldn't the Chechens have something in common with the Tatars, who in the Crimean are more aligned with the ethnic Ukrainians there? What's with this all of a sudden-like, close buddy-buddy with Russian speaking peoples and Cossacks? While turning on Tatars. They have animus against Tatars?

That Russian RT tv channel propaganda has been mighty effective.
